plusieurs personnalités mythiques, réelles ou fictives, qui ont toutes aujourd'hui valeur d'archétype. Chanteuse avant tout, actrice à ses heures, celle qui aura été l'un des plus grands monstres sacrés du music-hall d'après-guerre occupe désormais une place de choix dans la mémoire collective. Publié d'abord quinze ans après sa disparition, ce livre est le tout premier essai consacré à la créatrice de Gigi L'Amoroso. Un texte singulier, un regard lucide sur une artiste célèbre, mais néanmoins méconnue. Au-delà de l'anecdote, est mise en lumière ici l'extraordinaire complexité du personnage Dalida, un être dont l'existence et let travail s'enchevêtrent jusqu'à former une œuvre apparemment éclatée, mais forte pourtant d'une implacable cohérenceTerry: my daughter's life-and-death struggle with alcoholism

For junior and senior high readersGoodbye: A first conversation about grief (First Conversations)
Par Megan Madison. 2023
An audiobook edition of the board book about grief, offering adults the opportunity to begin important conversations with young children…
in an informed, safe, and supported way. Developed by experts in the fields of early childhood and activism against injustice, this topic-driven book offers clear, concrete language to introduce the concept of grief. This book aims to normalize the topic of death by discussing what it means and how it feels to experience loss. It centers around several questions that arise about grief and honest, simple ways to answer them. While young children are avid observers and questioners of their world, adults often shut down or postpone conversations on complicated topics because it's hard to know where to begin. Research shows that talking about tough issues from the age of two not only helps children understand what they see, but also increases self-awareness, self-esteem, and allows them to recognize and confront things that are unfair, like discrimination and prejudice. These books offer a supportive approach that considers both the child and the adult. There is simple and interactive text, and the backmatter offers additional resources and ideas for extending this discussionWorld within a song: Music that changed my life and life that changed my music

What makes us want to write our own songs? Do songs help? Do songs help us live better lives? And do the lives we live help us write better songs? After two New York Times bestsellers that cemented and expanded his legacy as one of America’s best-loved performers and songwriters, Let’s Go (So We Can Get Back) and How to Write One Song , Jeff Tweedy is back with another disarming, beautiful, and inspirational book about why we listen to music, why we love songs, and how music can connect us to each other and to ourselves. Featuring fifty songs that have both changed Jeff’s life and influenced his music—including songs by the Replacements, Mavis Staples, the Velvet Underground, Joni Mitchell, Otis Redding, Dolly Parton, and Billie Eilish—as well as Jeff’s "Rememories," dream-like short pieces that related key moments from Jeff’s life, this book is a mix of the musical, the emotional, and the inspirational in the best possible way. * This audiobook edition includes a downloadable PDF with song credits and permissionsMeasure for measure: a musical history of science
